A good online course still needs a real person who knows the subject and understands where you live. That is why every Boekrak Learning course is taught by a local lecturer.
Our lecturers use South African examples, from spaza shops to matric exams, and they reply in a day or two.
Students learn more when the examples look like their own lives. ― Pieter van der Merwe, Web Development LecturerThat closeness helps students stay with a course. They feel seen, and they know who to ask when they get stuck. Here is how it works in practice.
Examples that make sense
Our lecturers teach pricing in Rand, marketing for a local bakery and English for job interviews in Cape Town. When the example fits your own life, the lesson sticks and you can use it at work the next day.
Help that arrives on time
Students can ask questions by email or WhatsApp and get an answer from a lecturer, not a bot. Many also join our open days and meetups in Stellenbosch, where they meet the people who teach them.

Good article for teachers. The advice on moving lessons online is clear and easy to follow. I will try it with my Grade 9 learners.
